PAPER-COATING NIACHINE Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Feb. 26, 1907.

Application filed June 8,1906. Serial N0. 320,794.

To all whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, FRANK KLoUsNITZER, a subject of the Emperor of Austria, residing at Herman, in the county of Butler and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Paper-Coating Machines, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.

This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in paper-coating machines; and the invention relates more particularly to a machine for preparing flyaper.

The object of this invention is to provide a simple and effective machine for coating paper with an adhesive or sticky fluid. To this end I have devised a machine for expeditiously coating paper as it is unwound from a roll or passed through the machine, also novel means for holding the paper while a portion of the same is severed and removed from the machine.

The machine principally consists of a holder for a roll of paper and .an adjustable receptacle for an adhesive fluid.

The detail construction of my improved machine will be presently described, illus-v trated, and then specifically pointed out in the claim.

Reference now being had to the drawing forming a part of this specification like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation of the machine. Fig. 2 is a plan of a receptacle-carrying frame. Fig. 3 is a plan of the machine. Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional view of the receptacle thereof as supported by the machine. Fig. 5 is a front elevation of the machine, and Fig. 6 is a detail sectional view of a portion of the machine.

The machine consists of abase-plate or platform 1, carrying slotted standards or uprights 2 at its one end, and between said standards is detachably journaled a roller 3,upon which a roll of paper 4 is placed. The standards or uprights 2 support a platform 5, having a railing 6. The platform is employed for supporting flower crooks or boxes or may be used as a paper-rack or the like support.

Mounted upon the platform 1, adjacent to the roll of paper 4, are two metallic straps or spanners 7, and slidably mounted in said spanners is a receptacle-carrying frame 8, having extensions 9, which engage in the spanners 7. The ends of the frame 8 are provided with posts or standards 10, having screw-threaded ends 11.

An oblong receptacle 12, having tapering sides 14, is adjustably mounted between the standards 10, the ends of said receptacle being provided with brackets 15, having their ends pierced to receive the standards 10.

Surrounding the standards '10 are coiled springsv 18, upon which rest the lower ends of the brackets 15. To retain the brackets in engagement with the springs 18, the screwthreaded ends of the standards 10 are provided with winged nuts 19.

The bottom of the receptacle is provided with a plurality of openings 20, and the top of the receptacle is provided with a threaded nipple 21, carrying a screw-threaded cap 22, said cap being removed to permit of the receptacle 12 being filled with a suitable adhesive fluid or material. The end of the platform 1 opposite the roll of paper 4 is provided with a pivoted yoke 23,v having a suitable handle 24. The yoke is adapted to lie in engagement with the sheet of paper, which passes between the receptacle 12 and the frame 8, and permit of a portion of said sheet of paper being severed from that portion which lies upon the platform when it is desired to use the coated paper at other places than upon the platform 1.

By the novel manner in which the receptacle 12 is mounted between the standards 10 said receptacle can be easily and quickly adjusted to permit of different kinds of paper being coated beneath the receptacle. The piece of paper is adapted to normally close the openings when at rest beneath said receptacle.

I do not care to limit myself to a specific form of adhesive fluid to be used in connection with my improved machine for coatin paper, and such changes in the size and minor details of construction as are permissible by the appended claim may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. 1

What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

In a machine for coating fly-paper, the combination of a platform, standards carried by said platform at one end thereof, a roll of paper'journaled in said standards, a pair of straps mounted on the platform adjacent the standards, a frame extending transversely of the platform carrying lugs extending at IOO IIO

right angles thereto and engaging in straps l tension of said springs, and ayoke carried by to secure the frame to the platform, 4a Vertithe platform near 1ts other ends substancal post carried by said frame adjacent each tially'as described.
